Beta 2 Trailer

Important Information

- The closed Beta 2 starts on Wednesday 26th of August 2015 and ends on Wednesday 02nd Monday 07th of September 2015.

- The game contains 4 factions, Haven, Academy, Sylvan and Dungeon, and 4 skirmish maps which you can play in singleplayer and also multiplayer.

- Available language is English only.

- All players who pre-ordered get access to the closed Beta 2. Those who didn't can join the waiting list for a chance to obtain a key.

Any idea how access to the beta works out? It's the 25th now and I pre-ordered through Steam, but I don't see any option to install the game yet - even in its current crappy (?) state. I also don't see any news updates on Steam about it.

Quote:To be part of it, you simply have to pre-order the game through any retailer (physical shop or online).

IF YOU PRE-ORDERED VIA UPLAY:

You'll be notified by email when the Closed Beta is live (Monday 25th May 2015), and you'll be able to download the game client at this moment. Once the game is downloaded on your computer, you'll simply need to run the game to access the Closed Beta.

IF YOU PRE-ORDERED VIA STEAM:

1. Might & Magic Heroes VII - Beta will be displayed in your Steam games library as soon as the Beta is live, on Monday 25th May 2015
2. Double-click on Might & Magic Heroes VII - Beta to download the game on your computer
3. As soon as the download is complete, run Might & Magic Heroes VII - Beta
4. Steam will provide you with a personal Uplay Beta code
5. The Uplay Launcher will pop up
6. Log in through your Uplay account or create an account
7. Redeem the Uplay Beta code Steam gave you
8. Might & Magic Heroes VII - Beta is now available

IF YOU PRE-ORDERED VIA ANY OTHER RETAILER:

a. Digital retailers & Micromania: you will directly receive a beta code from those retailers to redeem via your Uplay account on Monday 25th.
b. Physical shops: a personal Beta code should be given by the retailer at the moment of the purchase. This Beta code will need to be redeemed on the following page: https://mmh7.ubi.com/en/beta. The game will then appear in your Uplay games library on Monday 25th.

If you didn't receive your code from your retailer, please contact them directly for more information.

Pffft, who reads the FAQ anyway? Isn't the standard procedure to first mess around until you really can't figure it out, then you call the helpdesk and only after you exhausted those options do you read the FAQ?
